What PAM modules are available for HP-UX

Don Mallory — Fri, 30 Sep 2005 08:23:47 GMT

Hi everyone,

Just wondering what PAM modules are available for HP-UX other than pam_unix, pam_authz, pam_kerberos, pam_ntlm, pam_ldap?

What do they do, are there any special tricks?

There seem to be a lot of modules available for Linux, but not a whole lot for HP-UX...

plugabble authentication modules. They are part of the authentication infrastructure. A large part of the development has been done under the linux environment, however HP (HP-UX) and Sun (Solaris) added PAM as part of their authentication model to migrate to a more feature rich solution.

Check out www.kernel.org and look for PAM for more info on the Linux side.

Check out /etc/pam.conf on HP-UX to see the config file, under linux, it's a bunch of the under /etc/pam.d

Hi,
you can find PAM modules present in Internet Express. It can be downloaded from hp site. You can use the link given by arun.

Also, no other PAM modules are ported yet to HPUX, to my knowledge.
